Consider a bundled conductor of an overhead line consisting of three identical sub-conductors placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in figure. If we neglect the charges on the other phase conductors and ground, and assume that spacing between sub-conductors is much larger than their radius, the maximum electric field intensity is experienced at

The concept of an electricity short, medium and long line is primarily based on the

A $$400$$ V, $$50$$ Hz, three phase balanced source supplies power to a star connected load whose rating is $$12\sqrt 3 $$ kVA, $$0.8$$ pf(lag). The rating (in kVAR) of the delta connected (capacitive) reactive power bank neccessary to bring the pf to unity is

The insulation strength of an EHV transmission line is mainly governed by
